RoadMovie includes built-in presets for Apple TV, Cellphone, iPhone, iPod, PSP, PS3, Nintendo Wii and Web. Not only does it re-encode movies, but it can also support batch encoding, Meta-data insertion, subtitle insertion, and chapter insertion. RoadMovie has many other neat features such as the built in ability to upload movies directly to .Mac, WebDav, Amazon S3 or YouTube.

RoadMovie is easily worth the $20 pricetag, especially if you are looking to transfer those dvd rips and downloads to a format that your iPod/iPhone and PS3 can playback.

Rumors of PowerPC support being an optional install instead of being systematically bundled with the OS. This news along with rumors that Snow Leopard may only run on Intel machines is making me and my G4 nervous.

    However, most common apps have already become Universal Binaries, which means that they are able to run natively on both PPC and Intel machines. So, even though the last PowerPC machine shipped from Apple less then three years ago, PowerPC users may be quite upset when they find out that their PowerMac G5′s and PowerBook G4′s will not be able to take advantage of the new OS from Apple.
